Thanks to Community Member Suryasis for sharing this deal.
Unusual to see one this large without a number pad. I prefer to use one but not all of my laptops have it. Looks like a very good value.
Weight is not bad for this size. Most 15-inch models are heavier.
16:10 is a plus, 300 nits with 100% sRGB.
PD ad DP out.
16GB RAM.
1080p. webcam.
I see nothing this really needs out of the box. Could it benefit from a RAM upgrade? Maybe to help future proof, but not really necessary.
Good post! I would consider this a solid mid-level deal, but I am not the maestro here. TU.
Just FYI! Dell got rid of their mid level 15" and 17" and went to the 16". Also, Dell's lower end 3000 models doesn't have a backlit keyboard so you'll have to spend $300 more to get this model to have that feature. The trackpad on this and the 5620 are huge so while typing your mouse can jump to different places if you're not careful. Yes they removed the number pad. The reason why is they wanted the trackpad to be centered and with the number pad it wasn't. I still prefer the number pad especially with BitLocker being turned on, on every machine. It's a nightmare to type the key in without a number pad.
The biggest thing I hate with this machine is it has a digitizer but isn't a 2-in-1 so why have glass over the screen. It's brighter but has a bad glare if you're using it anywhere where there's light. They make screens with the touch function built in, which makes it easier to repair. So, if the screen gets broken on this model, it will be very expensive to fix. The weight isn't bad but I still think the 5515 (model before this one) was a lot better machine and so far I haven't been a big fan of the 16" models.
Yes, it is a pretty decent mid-level laptop. Also, apart from the internals, the whole laptop is made of aluminum alloy and as per the reviews, very high quality and sturdy with strong lid. Regarding the Ram upgrade, 16GB is more than enough for most use cases for this kind of laptop but if you need more, good thing is unlike the partial or completely soldered Ram trend, both slots are upgradable here and you can go up to 64GB.

Same here..the lack of a number pad is a deal breaker for me.

What issue?
Any reason the Amex offer $120 off $599 wouldn't work on this too?

Should be fine since Amex just looks for a charge over $599 at Dell
